1 Energy from wind and water extracted by Horizontal Axis Turbine Wind turbines in complex terrain (NREL) Instream MHK turbines in complex bathymetry (VP East channel NewYork) Common features? 1) horizontal axis turbine producing power 2) complex incoming flow conditions (bridge pier, karman vortices, bluff body wakes and turbine wakes)
2 First goal of a power plant: extract energy efficiently and for a long time with minimal maintenance costs. P = ½ c p A U 3 Turbine lifetime operation and maintenance costs mean power output given a mean incoming flow velocity representative of the actual flow distribution across the rotor of area A unsteady loads on the blades, low and high speed shaft, support tower (in general, on all device s components) The source of such unsteadiness comes from the turbulence of the incoming flow. What else?
3 Second goal of a renewable energy power plant: work efficiently with a minimal environmental footprint Wind Turbine: wake flow, alteration of the local heat flux, but most of it: noise, bats and birds MHK instream turbines: No noise birds fishes erodible sediment layer variable B.C. short and long term impacts on river morphodynamics and sediment transport Let us consider that a renewable energy source does not automatically imply that the power plant is environmentally sustainable
4 Buck and Renne 1985: wake effect on full-scale 2.5 MW turbines Presented summary of turbine/turbine (power deficit) and turbine/met tower wake interactions (velocity deficit from freestream tower to wake tower) Examined wake changes due to thermal stability, wind speed, and turbulence Source: Buck, Renne 1985
5 Chamorro and Porté-Agel 2010: Effects of thermal stability and incoming boundarylayer flow characteristics on wind-turbine wakes: a windtunnel study BLM 2010 turbine wake development neutral stable
6 Raul Cal 2010, the problem of double averaging equation for modeling turbine wake Entrainment of high momentum fluid into the wind power plant is due to turbulence at the canopy interface
7 Chamorro and Porté-Agel 2010 Effects of thermal stability and incoming boundary-layer flow characteristics on wind-turbine wakes: a wind-tunnel study neutral stable
8 Turbine wake research (miniature turbines) Zhang, Markfort, Porté-Agel 2012 Near-wake flow structure downwind of a wind turbine in a turbulent boundary layer PIV and hot-wire anemometer blade wake
9 Main ingredients in the wake: tip and hub vortices, vortex sheets wake shear layers wake expansion wake deficit
10 Are these features observed at utility scale? Hub vortex snow visualization and PIV: see Toloui 2014, Hong 2014 Tip vortex Hub vortex
11
12 tip vortex system and wake shear layer
13 Rotor Wake meandering
14 We can define the meandering wavelength and amplitude A, the expansion angle of the meandering domain and the mean velocity U c in the domain A, Domain of low speed meander oscillation... Is it important? Does it depend on turbine operating conditions? Tip vortex Potential tip vortex meander interaction leading to wake instability
15 Two flow meander populations have a distinct Stouhdal number 1 2 Let us consider A 2 2 U c2 St 2 ~ 0.3 Let us consider A 1 1 U c1 St 1 ~ 0.7 in the range explored by Viola, 2014, Iungo, 2014 recognized as the signature of the hub vortex (Kang and Sotiropoulos 2014) hub vortex oscillation Medici et al reported values in the range of 0:15 0:25, Chamorro et al.2013 observed a peak at 0.28 while Okulov and Sorensen2014 estimated a peak at 0.23, both at x=d 5. wake meandering oscillation
16 why wake modeling is important? Annoni et al WE Near and far wake distinction is based on the signature of turbine geometry on the flow statistics. Far wake instead has some intrinsic instability modes known as wake meandering
17 The induction factor a is defined based on the velocity deficit within the rotor plane. Why? because u is the average velocity at the low pressure side of the rotor. u must be >0 so the rotor becomes a porous disk radial symmetry actuator disk model
18 The normalized thrust coefficient and power coefficient depend on a a=1/3 corresponds to a max C p identified by the Betz limit of 59.3% 0<a<1 implies that u>0 and u< U no flow passing through the turbine all flow passing through the turbine as if the turbine does not exist
19 In fact a depends on the turbine operating conditions, which are defined by the tip speed ratio and by the pitch blade angle where =U tip /U = R/ U while is used to change the blade angle of attach amplifying or reducing aerodynamic lift torque J moment of inertia
20 with increasing complexity and computational costs.. actuator lines models: blade rotation is implemented, no nacelle no hub vortex (so far...) high resolution required fully resolved turbine-blade geometry very high resolution is required
21 What are the modeling assumptions, so far? 1) uniform inflow 2) no turbulence How can we make sure that the turbine is always operating at optimal conditions? Especially if: the incoming flow is unsteady angle of attack is varying... the mean incoming flow is not uniform (boundary layer, or flow within a farm, or complex terrain effects) We have some options... 1) improve wake models 2) wind preview: measuring the incoming flow approaching the turbine 3) wind power plant optimization: do not operate each single turbine at optimal conditions but optimize the full power plant C p Remember Cal 2010: how do we bring more high momentum fluid in the turbine from flow layers above the top tips increase mixing, increase power density (optimal streamwise-transverse turbine spacing,
22 1) Improve (static) wake models Realistic wake with turbine in two operating conditions (optimal-rated) suboptimal (derated towards large low ) optimal TSR derated note that we can modify the wake expansion angle k (Park model), adding a dependency on C p e.g. derated k=0.15, rated k=0.09 or introduce a Gaussian profile instead of the Park hat
23 1) Improve (dynamic)wake models 1) test how turbine response (in freq.) propagates through the wind power plant 2) Build a dynamic model able to account for wake meandering (or any scale dependent incoming flow perturbation amplitude modulation+phase shift). Question is: how can we optimize back wind turbines base on front turbines performance or state...
24 2) Upwind Preview Experimental setup: Full-scale testing at Eolos, flow measurements with WindCube LiDAR Inflow and wake data Turbine SCADA data Model-scale data for comparison LiDAR wake measurements LiDAR inflow measurements
25 2) Upwind Preview Methods for velocity calculation with LiDAR Standard WindCube N on north 2D (Planar) Velocity Calculation with NS aligned with the mean wind
26 2) Upwind Preview Inflow and wake Analysis: Wind tunnel - EOLOS LiDAR velocity profile 1 Hz measurement 1 beam per second Averaging volume PIV data Calculates u,v,w from 3 previous measurements Averaging region increases w/ height To mimic LiDAR, average in x Averaging distance defined from x/d z/z hub 26 Howard K.B. and Guala M. AIAA conf x/d
27 2) Upwind Preview Full Scale Velocity profile Profile curvature at x/d=-0.8 EOLOS convex curve over rotor Blockage compared to clean flow Scale Comparison Blockage at hub height EOLOS ΔU/U hub Model - ΔU/U hub Shear change many influences Re #, surface roughness, etc. z/z hub U /U hub z/z hub 27 U /U hub
28 2) Upwind Preview Wake Analysis: Full- to Model-Scale Profiles Velocity profile comparison EOLOS - LiDAR Wind Tunnel - Hotwire z/z hub z/z hub Singh et al. subm. (U - U inflow )/U hub (U - U inflow )/U hub 1.5D 2.5D 3D 28 (U - U inflow )/U hub (U - U inflow )/U hub (U - U inflow )/U hub
29 2) Upwind Preview Tracking the response of the Eolos turbine to inflow Power and strain appear to track velocity fluctuations Gust event details strain response Turbine response - - LiDAR U hub - - LiDAR U top-tip - Eolos power Black dots Root blade strain
30 2) Upwind Preview Tracking the response of the Eolos turbine to inflow LiDAR tracking up to 8 elevations within rotor swept area Turbine power output, blade strain, etc. Each time signal velocity time signal can be correlated to turbine data
31 2) Upwind Preview Cross-correlation Power to inflow Rotor averaged time signal Full-scale data produces ρ Pu = 0.82 Model-scale produces ρ Pu = 0.64 Signal from each elevation Full-scale peak at z/z hub =1.3 Model-scale peak at z/z hub =1.2 For turbine-turbine arrangement First inspect turbine wake Peak correlation occurs at hub height At z/z hub ~1.3 corresponding to z=z hub +L/4 the wind velocity is mostly correlated with power output and blade strain. This signal can be thus used as a wind input for a predictive control strategy (front turbines). For back turbines z/z hub ~1 Question: which control solution can we implement just due to the fact that the turbine is in boundary layer?
32 3) wind power plant optimization Experimental setup: SAFL wind tunnel (same boundary layer conditions as previous) Note that the ceiling was adjusted to account for blockage induced by the turbines Voltage acquisition from each turbine Wall parallel PIV (i) between rows and (ii) between columns (last row) Four test conditions Aligned Yaw Misalignment Staggered TSR Adjustment 32 KBH St. Anthony Falls Lab
33 3) wind power plant optimization Aligned farm, spacing effect on total production 4% reduction from l x = 6D to 5D 7% reduction from l x = 6D to 4D 13% reduction from l x = D to 6D Aligned vs Staggered total production Staggered has 11.9% increase over aligned farm with the same spacing Δ - l x = 6D - l x = 5D - l x = 4D 33 KBH St. Anthony Falls Lab
34 3) wind power plant optimization Performance changes via control adjustments (5 rows 3 col) Yaw Misalignment (4D by 3D spacing) Front row only Increase in downwind production at expense of front row TSR Adjustment (5D by 3D spacing) Center turbine only Large increase in downwind production γ = +15 TSR = 5 34 KBH St. Anthony Falls Lab
35 3) wind power plant optimization Total Farm Production Change Yaw Misalignment Production from 5 rows and 3 columns TSR Adjustment Production from 4 rows and 3 columns Needs further refinement to measure production change of derated turbine 35 KBH St. Anthony Falls Lab
36 3) wind power plant optimization Summary of Findings Aligned farm spacing Intuitive, larger spacing is better 7% reduction for 6D to 4D optimal spacing is an economic problem, not a fluid mechanic problem Staggered vs aligned Staggered 12% more production for 5 rows, 3 cols spaced at l x = 5D and l y = 3D Farm performance modification Yaw misalignment Smallest reduction at 0.3% for farm production TSR adjustment Most effective change, from TSR 3.2 to 5 with nearly 1% increase Provides promising results, needs further investigation 36 KBH St. Anthony Falls Lab
37 If we change the point of view and we investigate: 1) what flow structures the turbine feels? (unsteady loads cascading down from blades to foundation) 2) in the TKE scale by scale budget, what survives in the wake? 3) What do we have to take into account in the turbine control?
38 what are the relevant scales of the order (1/2, 1/3) of the rotor diameter depending on the tip speed ratio ( on non erodible-concrete channel, Chamorro et al. 2013) similar evidence is provided for the EOLOS wind turbine Moving on with this talk... What are the large scales of the flow in the atmospheric boundary layer?

Wind Energy 2014) Voltage spectra NEUTRAL neutral stable convective TT ST The very large scales motions are deflected by the hill for all thermal regimes however, thermal stratification inhibits momentum flux in the vertical direction expanding the wake in the cross-flow direction. thus, in the stratified regime the hill exerts a sheltering effect on the turbine
